Our best XI now

Ok, I think this is pedantics a little - the definition of overperformance is "To perform better than expected" which in Coburn's case he is performing better than his xG would suggest.
I don't think this is a bad thing. I agree he is finishing his chances well.

And I think this is what I would confirm from watching them both as well - Coburn has scored some good goals this season whilst Lath has been a bit wasteful (but this has improved - he was underperforming v xG earlier in the season)
I don't think it's being pedantic. I think it's just interpreting the data correctly.

Archer outscored his xG comfortably last season because he's a good finisher. Your some how spinning the fact that Coburn has scored more goals than expected into a negative. When it should be seen as a positive.

I'm not. I said "I don't think this is a bad thing"
 
it’s hard sometimes when people come out with bold opinions that just won’t happen.
I feel the same about McGree, his Plantar Fascitis hasn't magically disappeared on international duty, they are playing him through it. When he comes back he will mostly be recovering again, so what's the point of thinking what's our strongest team with him in it. I'm not including playoffs and possibly Wembley in that game I expect him to be back for those.

This is a good point.

He’s still on the bench for their QF today so probably not fit
